   No, think, play, and live! But not so in fear.

   So sad. You're viewing humanity, and reality itself, through a very objective lens. There is magic in every day: have some fun! Otherwise, quit complaining.

   All of your arguments are broad, baseless, and trivially disprovable. There absolutely is political will to enable a police state, and history absolutely rhymes.

    Great chrestomathy! I opened a PR for my lisp, Loon: https://github.com/clarkgrubb/hyperpolyglot/pull/139

    Don't be nasty - how could they make it better?

    Tessellation is simply required to render the IR. The viewport is guiding the cursor to the vertices (perhaps a bug) but the engine is not forcing their use. I also built a ray caster :) What wasn't working? I would love real feedback

    Thanks for trying. What doesn't work? What did you try? If you're specific I'm happy to fix it.

    Can you give specific examples?

    (forgot to mention, it's wired up to Claude so you can vibe CAD, like OP but with a few more steps - I'd like to train a similar model soon! I also wrote about my first stab at this https://campedersen.com/cad0 )

    Readers may also enjoy my open source Rust BRep CAD kernel https://github.com/ecto/vcad or the hosted version at https://vcad.io . I also wrote a bit about what goes into CAD apps! https://campede

    I'm building https://vcad.io , a free CAD application with an open source kernel (Rust/WASM)!

    ARC refcounts everything (many owners) whereas Loon refcounts only inside immutable shared tree nodes (one owner per handle)

    Thanks :) Check out the code - it's Loon! https://github.com/ecto/loon/blob/main/web/src/pages/guide/o...

    author here - the demos in the article are actually the Rust code compiled to WASM and running in your browser :)

    Here's my take on CAD in the browser! https://vcad.io I implemented a full kernel in rust and compile it to wasm https://github.com/ecto/vcad

    Thanks for the bug report! I'll have some time later this week to look into it. Just had a baby :)

    Fantastic question :) one could extrapolate the possibility space here to see the potential. The interesting core here is the emergent behavior clearly visible in the vizs - what happens when you measure this in higher-dimensional and more
